PLANS FOR DIVIDING THE PAMPHLET INTO CHAPTERS

a.

M[aybe] §§ 1–3 should be combined as an Introduction (or Section I?): "General-Theoretical Views of M[arxis]m on the S[ta]te"; (that which until now oppor­tunists and Kautskyans wanted to know only). Then: Concrete development of the views of M[arx] and E[ngels] on the role of the S[ta]te in r[evolut]ion and in the t[ransit]ion to s[ocialis]m: (а) 1847 and 1848, as an outline; (β) 1852, as a summing-up of French experience; (γ) the experience of 1871 = main point and (δ) "résumé" of 1891 (1891–1847 = 47 years).

b.

Ch[apter] I. What is generally known in the views of M[arx] and E[ngels] on the S[ta]te.
II. Lessons of the experience 1789–1851.
III. The experience of 1871.
IV. How does the S[ta]te begin to wither away? *

Etwa: The Doctrine of M[arxis]m on the S[ta]te 
(and the tasks of our r[evolut]ion).

Preface.
